The Green Party released its fully costed election platform on Thursday. Some of the highlights from the Green platform include:
-
Immediately invest $37 million directly into wage increases and benefits for frontline healthcare staff at Health PEI;
-
Invest $485 million to build more affordable and public housing and expand our public housing portfolio over the next five years;
-
Maintain the shoreline development moratorium until we’ve introduced new and improved shoreline protection legislation;
The Green Party estimates the cost of its platform will be $151.2-million in 2023-24, offset by $48-million in new federal transfers for a total net new cost of $103.2-million.
